Wisteria now Luna

A grey cat lays sleeping on a striped chair in her home.

(Written by Braydon age 11)
My Dad and I volunteer at AWS every Saturday morning and do cat socialization. We came across a cat named Wisteria and pet her a lot one day. We both loved her right away. We decided she was special and wanted to adopt her so we took her home that day! Mom was a bit surprised, but now she loves her as much as we do. She fits in so well with our other pets and is such a good girl. We did change her name to Luna as my friend said her eyes looked like the moon. The name stuck and now we call her Luna Balloona!

As @fema`s Disaster Preparedness Month comes to a close, we remind everyone to prepare not only themselves, but their pets as well. As you put together your disaster preparedness kit, remember that no matter the type of emergency, it’s always important to have updated and accurate contact information for:

☎️ Your local first responders (911 and non-emergency contact information)
☎️ Your local animal shelters (like AWS if you live in York County)
☎️ Animal control officers (usually reached through the police or sheriff non-emergency number)

Bookmarking their websites and following them on social media is a great way to keep in touch during an emergency. These points of contact could help in a multitude of ways by providing information, safety, or resources for you and your pet during a disaster. Your County Animal Response Team (CART), part of your county’s emergency management agency may also offer resources. In times of great emergency, AWS partners with local emergency organizations to provide a safe haven for pets when their people must evacuate and enter a local emergency shelter.
